    Re: The future of LDraw? —Jeffrey Findley
   (...) That's the sort of discussion forum layout that I've seen dominate every site I use today, except for Lugnet. Lugnet surely went the hierarchical direction because the best Newsgroup readers supported hierarchical views. Like it or not, that's (...) (14 years ago, 16-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: The future of LDraw? —Steve Bliss
   (...) Err, how am I supposed to remember which "dozens of threads" I visited yesterday? Most "forum" software seems pretty aggressive about not showing visited/unvisited links. I don't spend a lot of time in forums, but the only useful one I've (...) (14 years ago, 17-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: The future of LDraw? —Timothy Gould
     (...) Not sure which forums you visit but they must be unusually obtuse. Just about everywhere I visit tells you which threads have new posts since you last visited and an unread topics page. --snip-- (...) Tim (14 years ago, 17-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: The future of LDraw? —Don Heyse
     (...) Really? I kinda like to browse Eurobricks. Lots going on there, with plenty of great pictures. Once I tried to help someone with lsynth and then (I'm embarassed to say) I couldn't find my way back to that topic the next day. Even logged in I (...) (14 years ago, 17-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: The future of LDraw? —Tore Eriksson
      (...) Sorry, but I'm a little slow. Was it at LUGNET or Eurobricks you couldn't find your way back to that topic? /Tore (14 years ago, 17-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
     
          Re: The future of LDraw? —Don Heyse
      (...) I have trouble navigating Eurobricks because it requires so much scrolling and clicking on <next> links to find things. I mean, how do you find your way to a particular post when there are 318 *pages* and you have to scroll through them all to (...) (14 years ago, 17-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)

          Re: The future of LDraw? —Remi Gagne
      (...) This sounds promising. Doesn't seem very actively developed anymore, but then it's used here: (URL) you're interested, I've got some webspace where I can set up a test phorum, give you full access to try out & play with. I'm also proficient in (...) (14 years ago, 18-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
     
          Re: The future of LDraw? —Orion Pobursky
      (...) Thanks for the offer Remi. I have my own personal webspace that I also use to test out LDraw.org ideas and a server running locally on my laptop so I can develop without an internet connection. -Orion (14 years ago, 18-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: The future of LDraw? —Anders Isaksson
     (...) Maybe you're missing the 'login' part? When you're logged in you get a link "View new posts" on top right under the banner. You can also (when logged in) select the "Options" menu in the upper right (although a bit lower than the other link) (...) (14 years ago, 17-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: The future of LDraw? —Timothy Gould
     (...) Also threads with recent discssion are marked visually as being such and there's an Active Topics list available next to View New Posts. I'm going to be a little stirring here and suggest that possibly many of the same people demanding that (...) (14 years ago, 17-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: The future of LDraw? —Jeffrey Findley
   (...) The ones I typically visit (ClassicSpace.com, CrownVic.net, and etc.) all visually show threads with new responses in another color. Some even show you how many new replies there have been since I last visited. It's easy to see what to click (...) (14 years ago, 22-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
